Downhill with the FCAW process is really not recommended. If you take a cross section cut of the weld you will only have a fraction of weld deposit. For light work, 1/4" and less, no problem. I would hesitate downhill welding on anything thicker. Of course, 15degrees off horz. is considered uphill/downhill!
